Sir
As per your question we can file a defamation case under section 500 of Indian Penal Code but before this we have to fulfilled the condition of proviso of Sec 499 of IPC . Before filling defamation case you should take all precautionary steps which provides under proviso. No one have right to harm the reputation of anyone in publicly...
